DUBAI: Samana Developers’ total revenue increased 65% since Q2 2020. This is the 9th consecutive month – April to December 2020 – that the developer has reported a growth in revenue generated month-on-month despite roadblocks raised by the pandemic. Company has increased its headcount by 55% and has doubled the sales revenue target for 2021. In addition, the ongoing COVID-19 vaccine drive by the UAE and Expo 2020 in October this year are predicting a positive outlook for 2021 which will lead growth across sectors.
Imran Farooq, CEO of Samana Developers, said: “Dubai has performed well and is capable of fighting with a major pandemic. The city has launched a massive COVID-19 vaccine drive to protect the 9.89 million population. UAE converting the empty hotel apartments into quarantine centres was an innovative idea and helped reduce the spread of coronavirus. Dubai emerged has emerged as one of the fastest cities in the world to get over with the pandemic as UAE’s 12% population has already been given the first dose of the vaccine. Around 80,000 people get shots in a day. This is resulting in economic recovery and growth in tourism.”
